hi andy,
with python for S60 you have basically full control over the functions of the phone. audio, midi, speech, camera, sms, database, sockets (bluetooth, http), etc, http://wiki.opensource.nokia.com/projects/Python_for_S60
i also have no application using it in combination with pd but i m sure the knowledge of possibility comes in handy for specific situations. you could:
- send an sms via pd
- upload/download data to the net if u have no wlan
- do something specific when you receive an sms
- have mobile phones playing along with your patch
- an orchestra of mobile phones controlled by a pd patch
... you name it
one of the most interesting things for me at the moment is and that has nothing to do with pd (but could ..) is to use http sockets on the phone for data exchange between a microcontroller (connected via BT to the phone) and the internet. as you are independend of wlan and the phone network coverage is meanwhile so well you have a very good base technology for mobile artworks. i use for this one: http://www.realitydisfunction.org/heartdonor/

Nice one Erich,
Can you give some examples/applications of what you might be able to do with this. How much hackability has Symbian got through bluetooth using this?
Cheers

hello,
i posted a rough demonstration of how to connect an arduinoBT board to a symbian based S60 mobile phone here: http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/SymbianS60Python
with no changes (only put the right bluetooth address into the script) the same python code can be used to connect the phone to a comport object in pd (or any other software capable of opening a BT serial port).
the python code is horrible but i hope some of you will improve it and post it back for further use.
